I would prefer to see the size of portions decrease 'cause I cannot eat it
all and instead of reducing the prices pay a decent wage. I just hate to
see good food going to waste and as for taking it home for the dog -
well, I have no dog besides which its expensive dog food.

Don't they have refrigerators in the UK?

Here in the US we do. And when a restaurant serves me twice as much food as
I can eat (which they often do), I simply take the remaining portion home
and have it for a later meal. Storing it in the refrigerator until that
time, of course.

As far as the relationship between portion sizes and prices go, there's a
reason the portions are so large in the first place. It's because portion
sizes don't have all that much to do with prices. Labor, rent, equipment
costs, etc. are a much bigger chunk of what winds up on your bill. Making
portions smaller wouldn't reduce prices by much at all.
